Donald Trump, the former US president, is present at UFC 290, further solidifying his reputation as the fight president.

Trump has made previous appearances at UFC events, including UFC 264 and UFC 287. He has even provided fight commentary, taking the microphone during Vitor Belfort’s dominant victory over Evander Holyfield.

Tonight, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, Trump is attending as a spectator. As the pay-per-view portion of UFC 290 began, cameras captured Trump being escorted to his VIP seats by Dana White himself.

It is expected that he will enjoy the upcoming championship bouts featuring Yair Rodriguez and Brandon Moreno.

It seems that Trump is having a great time so far. At one point, Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier temporarily stepped away from their commentary duties to converse with Trump when he approached them.

There were already speculations that Donald Trump might show up at UFC 290, and video footage from SteveWillDoIt, a close friend of Dana White and a popular YouTube influencer, confirmed that Trump was indeed in Vegas spending time with White.

However, it should be noted that Trump’s attendance at the event is not merely for show. Dana White has verified that Trump is a passionate fan who frequently calls him to discuss recent fights.

“So this guy calls me twice a month and will talk to me for an hour about fights that have happened since we last talked,” White said back in April. “And he knows everybody. He knows what they did and who they fought last. He’s a huge fight fan. Loves this stuff.”

So, who’s winning the race so far?

America’s top priority right now is to make sure the United States—not China—lead in artificial intelligence and the U.S. Air Force just took a big step in that direction.

The Air Force is incorporating ‘AI’ and machine learning for its future fleets.

Top officials say the ‘AI’ controlled aircraft could be on track to be as good as any human pilot.

Established brands like Peugeot and Nissan are slashing prices by significant margins to compete with emerging Chinese EV competitors.

Facing a dual challenge of a decelerating growth in EV adoption and a surge in competitively priced alternatives from Chinese manufacturers like BYD and MG, traditional automakers are forced to enact substantial price cuts to clear inventory.

This trend reflects the fast pace within the market and signals the formidable struggle for dominance in the EV space. #featured #trending

Does this mark a shift in Washington’s public approach to the war?

President Joe Biden is vowing to withhold weapons from Israel if the Jewish State goes forward with its invasion of Rafah.

The comments came after the Biden administration halted a recent shipment of bombs amid concerns over Israel’s plans to launch a full-scale assault on Rafah even as cease-fire talks continue with Hamas.

Jonathan Tobin, the Editor-in-Chief of Jewish News Syndicate, joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
